Best ways to free up power steering pressure line frozen connection

At the steering rack the connection looks rounded out like the previous owners used a pair of pliers or a slippery vice grip tool. It may have not been done by a mechanic because the same line is still there(if they were trying to replace it). Like the title says, what are the best ways to free up that connection for that old of a car? Should you heat up the engine for that type of metal? Will that help?
